Not all fashion is created equal, so not all of them will be pretty styles that most will be ready to wear. That definitely holds true for some of spring 2014′s footwear from the runways. These ‘ugly shoe trends,’ as they’re being called, include Birkenstocks, slides, sport sandals and performance inspired sandals. But what these shoe styles lack in prettiness, they make up for in comfort and the ability to give you wardrobe a new twist. Most likely an extension of fashion’s on-going athletic trend (and general obsession with all things fitness), these spring and summer ‘ugly shoe trends’ of 2014 will go great with your boxy crop tops and culottes or bomber and track pants.
